About this author

Don is a 1968 graduate of Madison Central High School in Madison, South Dakota. He graduated from Dakota State University in Madison in 1972 with a degree in secondary education. After moving to Washington State in 1981, Don studied computer programming and turned his writing efforts to software. After twenty-five of IT work, Don's passion for writing flared up again, and the doctors couldn't do anything to cure it. The outcome (so far) is a five book series involving two generations of the Masterson family, a standalone book dealing with the occult, and a standalone book dealing with aging and unforgiveness.

David Morrell
“As much as I like it when a book I'm writing speeds along, the downside can be that an author becomes too eager to finish and rushes the end. The end is even more important than the first page, and rushing can damage it.”
David Morrell

Angela Elwell Hunt
“And let me tell you - carrying sad memories will wear you out. You've got to put them down walk away. Do whatever you must to put emotional space between yourself and your past. That's the only way you're going to make it through.”
Angela Elwell Hunt, The Note: A Novel -

Angela Elwell Hunt
“Our town was known for two things--no, three: salted fish, expertly dyed fabrics, and corruption.”
Angela Elwell Hunt, Magdalene

Angela Elwell Hunt
“I've never been one to mourn the passing of what could have been a promising relationship. When Jeff Knave broke my heart in the ninth grade, I decided then and there that if a guy couldn't see that I was something special, I'd say good-bye with no regrets. Not that I think I'm more special than anyone else, mind you. But if a thing is not meant to be, I figure it's just not part of God's infinite plan.”
Angela Elwell Hunt, The Velvet Shadow

Richard Weikart
“Darwinism by itself did not produce the Holocaust, but without Darwinism... neither Hitler nor his Nazi followers would have had the necessary scientific underpinnings to convince themselves and their collaborators that one of the worlds greatest atrocities was really morally praiseworthy.”

Thank you for adding me to your friends list.

Adrienna Okay. Glad you found it and got your email too. Thanks. Wow, you are writing a series anti-Twilight, how could this be? Tell me more. I tried to read the series and did not care for it...up to the third of the series and stopped reading since. This would be wonderful. I hope to work on my Guardian Watch Series, supernatural fiction/fantasy/sci-fi. I prefer supernatural, but you have to shelf books also under their categories!


Christine Hi Donald, stopped by to see what's new on your page. Have a great week.
